As for my workouts, I’m still going strong, if you’re wondering. Do you follow me on instagram? Then you may have noticed I made this green smoothie after my last p90x workout.

But before we talk about this tasty smoothie, let’s talk workouts.

I’m curious, for those of you who workout at home…what do you do? Are you a dvd watcher? Run on a treadmill in your basement? Do you write your own routine?

I have a gym membership that I barely use in the winter. I will go for a week, then quit going and workout at home for two months before going back to the gym.

I never thought I would enjoy working out at home, but two years ago we bought p90x and started the program. I hate love it. It’s a great home workout.

I also have a couple Jillian Michael’s body shred DVD’s as well as some Bob Harper Kettleball workouts.

But now I’m hearing of this T25 and I’m totally intrigued. Not that I need to spend more money on a workout, but I do enjoy having variety at home!

So basically, I’m putting out a request, tell me YOUR favorite home workouts. If it’s a link, share it!!

Oh, speaking of variety, thanks to Shanna from Pineapple and Coconut I started doing 10,000 Kettleball swings for the month of January (be sure to stop at her blog for some healthy recipes!!). Ummm, what was I thinking???? In addition to my p90x and treadmill workouts, I’m doing about 400 swings per day. And every muscle in my body hurts.

Enter….Green Monster Smoothies.

Nice transition, right???

I love to change up the variety of fruits in my smoothies, but my very favorite green smoothie is this one! With banana, spinach and peaches; it’s so refreshing and delicious!

I’ve also added some Vanilla whey protein powder into my smoothie, this is totally optional! I love having this extra protein boost in my diet, it makes this smoothie a meal replacement! ENJOY.

If you have the nerve, add a pinch of cilantro to this smoothie! It takes it to a whole new wonderful place! And a squirt of lime juice. See, my mind and flavor buds keep on going…

I love this combination for a green smoothie. I’m excited to try it. I tend to get in a rut with my smoothies. And my workout DVD’s. I like to mix it up too. My favorites, though, tend to be Leslie Sansone’s Walk Away the Pounds.Kathy recently posted..Holy Cow Brownies

More power to you sister! I am not so big on the working out, though I should be. How about I just sit back, kick my feet up and drink this! Nancy P.@thebittersideofsweet recently posted..Hawaiian Hamburgers

I work out 4-5 days a week at the gym but I used to do p90x abs to supplement it before I started doing pilates. My mom is currently on a p90x kick! Is it just me or do you think the yoga is surprisingly harder than expected?

Ok… so not at your level of working out yet! I’m lucky if I get 40-50 minutes in on the treadmill walking… and I bribe myself with tv shows I can only watch down there. I use to do a lot of running. The hubby does the P90 thing, and loves it… or so it seems Laura @ Lauras Baking Talent recently posted..Slow Cooker Chicken Stroganoff

I need to get back on the workout grind! Go you for getting it!! This smoothie does look delicious, I could drink a few of these!! Adding lime sounds amazing!Elizabeth @ Confessions of a Baking Queen recently posted..Caramel Apple Crisp

400? Wow, you go girl! And your photos are gorgeous! I hate photographing smoothies, milkshakes, parfaits, etc, but you did an incredible job with these. I really want to dive right in. For workouts? I used to run, but now I just do things our personal trainer gave us … they’re just on a sheet of paper, so I assume he made them up. Sorry that isn’t much help at all!Mary Frances recently posted..{Whole Wheat} Caramel Dark Chocolate Chip Bagels

Lol…I am scared of green smoothies. I think I like the idea more than anything. I pin a billion recipes but never make them. I need to try yours. It’s the most sane one I’ve seen (if that makes sense).
I love my local kick boxing class, but on off days I do DVD workouts at home (especially in the cold weather if I can’t run outside). I go through phases. Right now I’m totally into Bob Harper. Love Jullian M. I’ve done Shawn T’s hip hop abs and Insanity. Um, the Insanity is insane. Way to hard. I heard about the T25 but have not tried that yet. I hope you find something that you love.

This sounds fantastic, Aimee! I’ve been making green smoothies for the past 3 weeks and we have our share of bad combos so I’m always on the lookout for stellar recipes. This one sounds refreshing. I can’t wait to try it– writing ingred. on my farmer’s market list now! My favorite home workouts are Jillian DVDs and going out running. I have to force myself out the door for a run, but always love it once I’ve begun.Jelli recently posted..Family First: Tidy Home

I love green smoothies. This one looks so refreshing!! When I’m at home, I run on my treadmill and watch something on Netflix on my I Pad. Otherwise, I am on a team fitness program at Lifetime. I love it! I have met a lot of great friends through it and when I don’t do it, I am NOT consistent with working out at all!!Renee@ Two in the Kitchen recently posted..Nutella Peanut Butter Cookie Cups

Aimee,
I love this Green Monster Smoothie! After a long run I like to drink no only water but after I cool down a bit something a little different but healthy. This sounds perfect! Thank you for providing a great idea, I can’t wait to try this!Rushfit recently posted..GSP RUSHFIT!

I’ve never tried a green smoothie (probably the only person who hasn’t!). I’m not sure I can imagine drinking spinach, but love that your version includes peaches!Krystle(Baking Beauty) recently posted..Buckeye Brownies Recipe

Ugh I knew the world would tell me I needed to work out one way or another! I’m so bad because I know I should, but it is just so intimidating. THOUGH – if I had a delectable (and good for me) smoothie as a prize for not dying while on the treadmill, MAYBE I could be a real person and start working out. Jess @ On Sugar Mountain recently posted..Drop Sugar Cookies

Are your vanilla almond milk and vanilla yogurt sweetened? Sounds like a lot of extra sugar in this since banana and peaches already will make it sweet. Don’t fear the green! (My quick green smoothie is spinach, blueberries, water, blend.)

T25 is one of my favorites! Very different than Insanity, which I love. You move non-stop for the full 25 minutes. A great workout and the whole program comes with 12 DVDs so you won’t ever get bored! Always follow it up with a healthy and good quality protein smoothie!

Wow – that green smoothie not only looks great, but it sounds like it also will taste great (I have tried some and they just kinda taste like raw veggies – understandably as they´re so heavily veg based) – I have to try this one though. As for exercise I´m currently on week 3 of P90X3 and loving that it´s only 30 minutes a day, although I´m missing the weights and the arm definition that they brought really quickly when I did P90X, but it´s still early days, I´ve never tried Kettleball swings – that could be fun LJ recently posted..101 Progress Check – December 28th 2013

turbo fire is a blast, insanity is crazy insane but fun, chalean extreme is awesome I love the weights, jillian micheals 90 day is good, I love to have different ones so I don’t get bored with the workouts. thanks for smoothie ideas.

Try this workout if you have a pullup bar.
Set a timer for 30 minutes. Do 3 pullups or chinups, 10 pushups, 10 speed situps or other core exercise. Do as many rounds as u can in the 30 minutes.
OR: put 40 coins on a table and move one after every round and do the workout throughout the day until all 40 coins have been moved.

I love T25! How can you say no to 25 minutes a day? I’m a Beachbody coach and there is a new program on the scene called the 21 Day Fix. It looks to be really great! I’m not a gym person at all, I’m intimidated, so home DVDs are my preference.

Green smoothies are a great way to get all that good stuff in and they are actually great. I prep mine when I get home from the grocery, packing 2 c. spinach or kale into baggies, and fruits cleaned & chopped into snack size baggies by 1 c. so I can change things up. I do 2 c. green, 3 cups fruit, 2 c. liquid ( water, oj, almond milk or a combo) and always start with just liquids and green, this get sit smooth before adding the fruits. This makes 32 oz., I drink one immediately and stash the other in the fridge or split between my kiddos. This makes it easy to get out every morning, and I don’t have to add ice, since my fruits and greens are frozen I’ve been avoiding work outs for 4 years my goal is to get back in shape, did a 30 day challenge in January with green smoothies and now I am slowly trying to start the work outs.

I have the T25 DVD’s…love them! (a great workout in 25 mins) and add them to my rotation of videos. I don’t go out to the gym so have to find my motivation at home. Jillian M’s “No More Trouble Zone’s” rocks it for a great all round workout that helps you shed inches, and get toned. I’m back to the treadmill while I watch Netflix to help me get through a couple miles. Exercise is soooo mind over matter – hate it, but love how I feel after. I need to try your green smoothie…it looks great!
